Features
Pigeon does what a messenger should, and every conversation stays between the people in it.
Fast, simple one-to-one chats. Every one is end-to-end encrypted, always.
Family, friends, the team. Group chats get the same protection as a direct message.
Crystal-clear one-to-one calls, encrypted from your device to theirs.
Share pictures, voice notes, and documents. They’re locked before they upload.
No signal? Messages hop between phones over Bluetooth until they reach your friend.
No trackers, no feed, no one studying your chats. Just your conversations.
Nearby
Turn on Nearby and Pigeon sends messages phone to phone over Bluetooth. No cell service or Wi-Fi needed, as long as someone with Pigeon is close by.
Packed crowds overload the cell towers. The crowd itself can carry your message.
Dead zones where data never really worked. If you’re close, Pigeon still can.
When the network is down, people nearby can still reach each other.
Each hop reaches about the size of a large room, so range grows with the number of Pigeon users nearby. Nearby is not a replacement for emergency services.
Privacy
Not over the internet, and not over Nearby. Your messages are locked on your device, and only the people you’re talking to hold the key.
Messages, photos, and calls are encrypted on your phone or computer before they go anywhere.
We don’t keep a copy we can open. Our servers carry sealed envelopes, nothing more.
Alerts from Apple and Google just say “New message.” Your words never ride along.
